Do you have a picture of the two of them you could frame? Or the two of you, or the whole family. Something family memory ish, maybe.

they have been gathering pictures the whole week, she has those. We often give massages, but maybe no one else is doing that this Christmas so I could. Probably the best bet.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Today, I've cut my hair short, finished my Christmas shopping, and done a couple small acts of kindness. That'll do; I'm spending the rest of the weekend in my house.

Thank you for not burying the lede.

NP: "I Want a Hippopotamus For Christmas."

Perfect for Aimee's graduation day.

Matilda and I saw Frozen today - excellent! So good and neatly tapdances around a lot of Princess Issues. Great score and I expect somebody's going to be breaking out Idina's big number on The Voice or something soon.

ANNNNNNDDD now I want to get her nothing because she had the gall to tell my brother to not bring his fiancee to the memorial, but - wait wait wait - possible false alarm. I am IMing with my brother now and he may have mis-understood her. I provided a different translation of what she may have been saying. We are awaiting a text of clarification. DEEP BREATHS. Man I was CURSING HER OUT.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Fraught is right!

My poor mother has shingles. Because she needed one more thing! At least I showed her how to pause the tv, now that she has a DVR, which she'll never use...

Because books.

That does sound tricky, msbelle.

Shingles sound just awful.

Thor is on my TV now, and I'm too lazy to look for something else. Plus, Hemsworth. Mmmmm.

I can't decide who my favorite Avenger is. There are so many things to recommend them all!

I am home. Turns out the wifi vs. battery was not an issue, because my headache decided I couldn't look at a backlit screen.

There is no wifi here. How will I survive the week?

Shingles is awful. Poor mom of Jesse!

I agree with your non-decisions, Amy. I am watching Alpha House on Amazon Video because John Goodman and Gary Trudeau, myself.

Sorry about the headache and the lack of wifi, Sue.

Lack of wifi is just not fair.
